About this title

Synopsis

If you want to build your site’s frontend with the single-page application (SPA) model, this hands-on book shows you how to get the job done with Backbone.js. You’ll learn how to create structured JavaScript applications, using Backbone’s own flavor of model-view-controller (MVC) architecture.

Start with the basics of MVC, SPA, and Backbone, then get your hands dirty building sample applications―a simple Todo list app, a RESTful book library app, and a modular app with Backbone and RequireJS. Author Addy Osmani, an engineer for Google’s Chrome team, also demonstrates advanced uses of the framework.

Learn how Backbone.js brings MVC benefits to the client-side
Write code that can be easily read, structured, and extended
Work with the Backbone.Marionette and Thorax extension frameworks
Solve common problems you’ll encounter when using Backbone.js
Organize your code into modules with AMD and RequireJS
Paginate data for your Collections with the Backbone.Paginator plugin
Bootstrap a new Backbone.js application with boilerplate code
Use Backbone with jQuery Mobile and resolve routing problems between the two
Unit-test your Backbone apps with Jasmine, QUnit, and SinonJS
